Woodcraft gathering at Lockerbrook

Spent Saturday night at Lockerbrook - Linda and Jess had organised a gather of old Woodcraft types. Had lots of fun, ate too much curry, drank far too much red wine, discovered that I was the only person there who can pick a sliver of cardboard off the floor with their mouth without touching the floor with knees or hands (apart from Jessie, but she doesn’t count as she’s only nine and hence supple as hell). Almost went on the Pudding Run in Bradfield the next morning, as Linda had a spare number, but… well, perhaps that was just the wine talking. By the next day, the wine wasn’t talking any more, it was whining, and even swift ingestion of about 10 gallons of water wasn’t quite enough to rehydrate my system. Any kind of physical exertion seemed like a bad idea.
